THE CHRONIC.

1t is the privilege of the kicker to
think that he is always just night and
everybody else is wrong. The man
who lives in a town who can not speak
well of it should either hold his peace
or get out as soon as possible. Wehave
in our minds eye man who is in bust
ness in this place and who is contin-
ually dining the city, who is always
ready to move away if he could only
dispose of his property, who less than
six years ago, when he came here, had
not enough property to fill one of his
pockets, and hardly enough money to
buy meal with. Yet, within the time
named, he has accumulated quite a
stock of goods and has a home of his
own-an made in few years in a town
not now good enough for him to live in,
although he is making more money to-
day than ever in his lifetime before he
came to Emporia. The following from
the FL Dorado Republican, although a
little sarcastic, is still to the point:
The Ell Dorado board of trade is made
up OF lot of old reprobateS who meet
working up schemes to beat the town.
| These men own property here, are
| active, and let on as though they want
ed to help the town, but in reality they
are trying to set up jobs to beat some
body.
The packing company is made up of
bloated capitalists who are trying to
beat Ell Dorado out of ten Thousand
dollars, but they can't do it.
The University crowd ara a IOf of
fellows who want to unload their real
estate and are around asking our peO-
pie to put up S25, 600 to help them I'M
load. If they want a university let
them build it.
Sorghum sugar, did you say? When
this town puts up $50, 600 to help few
spectators build sugar works here, it
will be after the present population is
dead and gone.
There is not a man in FL Dorado who
reads this article but what will have to
admit that he has heard lots of talk
similar in character to the above, on
the streets of FL Dorado in the past
week. In fact, there are dozens of men
who stand around on the street corners
and do nothing else but get off this
kind of stuff to anybody who has time
to stop and hear them.
And in this connection we wish to
enquire, what good does it do? Who
does it benefitY
Why cant the people of this town go
to the board of trade meeting, discuss
questions of public interest, agree what
to do and then go out and be unani-
mousp If a majority says thing is
all right ret the minority fall in line
and acquiesce. That is the way to
make things go; that is the way to get
packing houses, colleges, sugar works
and all other things necessary to build
a city out of a village.

Four or five of the band boys re-
turned Saturday from st. Louis pretty
well shaken up. Several more will
come in this evening. They were all in
the railroad wreck close to st. Louis
Friday morning early and had mar
row escape. Two chair cars, five
freight cars loaded with ties, and the
depot were consumed by the fire which
started Immediately after the telescop-
ing. No means for quenching the
flames could be got, as it was but a
small station. The boys were
in the front section and had
just settled down to sleep
when they were struck by the second
section. Then came a scrambling for
the door. The passengers in rear coach
were thrown to the front end and the
hind and second car were telescoped,
leaving but one door and the windows
for the two car loads of people to crawl
through. Several on the train were
badly bruised, the engineer of the sec
ond train suffering the most. No lives
were lost, and how they all got out, in
the fire and binding steam, is almost
q miracle

THE vote on prohibition in Tennessee
was much closer than many thought it
would be. In the eastern portion of
the state the amendment carried by
about 10000 majority, but in the west
ern part it was defeated by double the
same figures. Nevertheless, it is claimed
the election has done an immense
amount of good, inasmuch as many
voters have gone to the polls who never
figured there before, but who will in
the future be induced to take part in
politics. In other Words this contest
has done much to break party lines in
Tennessee, and it is not at all improb-
able that she will be the first to frac-
ture the close corporation heretofore

In, the last three issues Of the NOM
ing Republican paragraphs have ap-
peared, one following another, notify
ing the public Of the finding of three
sets Of false teeth on the days preced-
ing each notice; also, requesting the
owners to call for their property and
pay charges. Few would discover the
fact that it is an ingenious mode of col
lecting q bad debt, a mere ruse hit upon
by the editor, who, by long experience
in financiering matters. has become a
pretty hard subject to do up on the dol
lar question. The following is said to
be an explanation of themysterious ad-
vertisements: It is rumored that a
certain travelling dentist who had been
an extensive advertiser in the Republi-
can, left town unexpectedly short
time ago, and in his haste forgot totpay
his printers bill. The assets left be
hind were six or eight sets of false
teeth-misfits, 3 perhaps. AS there
were no claimants for these jaw Orna-
ments they are supposed to have faIleI
| into the hands of the creditor. No ONT
but an exceedingly hopeful and far,
seeing editor could expect to win by
taking the small chance of finding PEG
pie to come forward and lay claim t.
property of this peculiar kind. Blu
stranger things than this have hap
pened in the world.

on the subject, has the following
The rain has prevented the Kansas
City fair association from carrying out
its programme this week, but has by
no means dampened the ardor of the
officers and directors. At meeting,
this morning, it was decided To post

10 to 10 Inclusive. Wehave no fair ex-

KANsANs who are inclined to COM
plain of hard times and poor crops
should take short trip away from
home in almost any direction, and they
would be soon convinced that they have
good reason to thank the Lord that
they live where they do. Kansas, as
compared with some previous years,
has not done so well this season. But
when a comparison is made with other
surrounding states she is still the peer
if not far the superior of any as regards
crops. A trip a week or so ago through
Northern Missouri, Eastern and North

by the editor of this paper, disclosed
the fact that Kansas has net suffered
near as much by drought as either of

THOSE who have used natural gas
will smile audibly at the statement
made by Prof. j. L. White, in the
American Magazine. that natural gas
is without odor. While it is not as
fragrant as coal gas, it smells, and
Brother Campbell ought to know, as
he is undoubtedly natural gas expert.
But, then possibly, Prof. White has
never as yet come into contact with the
same kind of natural gas used on the
Rep.-Trav. Again, there is a POSSIBLE
ity that Brother Campbell is unaware
of the fact that all kinds of natural
gas does not smell alike. However, we
are willing to take his word for il
that the quality used on the Rep. -Trav

THE liquor question has been decided
to the entire satisfaction of one Wyan-
dotte man. at least. He is a German
and buys the beer for his own use, puts
it in his cellar and let's his patrons steal
it. In each case the thief must leave
the correct change and the German
must appropriate this pocket money to
his own use and benefit. He says he
does not sell beer, but in this way is
making money. He calls it hush money
and that the sneak thieves who steal
his beer have to put up to him in order
to keep from being prosecuted for petty
larceny.

THIS mornings Republican says:
&c The G. A. r. boys could not stand
the rainy weather, and left st. Louis
by the thousands. They are not as
plucky as they were twenty-odd years
ago, when they would brayeiy sustain
heavy attack of weather and brig
ade or SO of rebels thrown in. But
then, circumstances alter cases." Yes,
indeed, circumstances do alter cases.
In the one place it was case of neces-
sity, and in the other it is merely a
matter of fun. In one case they were
soldiers in the other they are only
playing soldier. The Republican should
confine itself more closely to subjects
with which it is familiar-female suf-
frage, for instance.

THE alacrity with which the moneyed
men of Newton subscribed for stock in
the sugar works, and their promptness
in getting matters shaped for the con-
summation of the work, have elected
much favorable comment from the press
and the people of the state. The fact
of Newton being the first city to pro-
vide the means for an extensive factory
seems to about equally divide the hon.
OTIS with Fort Scott, for Whenever the
success at the latter place is referred to,
Newton is also mentioned as being the
first to provide a plant. The results
flowing from this promptness win be
many AMI continuous, while the bene-
fits will be great and generally distri-
buted among the citizens.-Kansan.
